Customer Ratings & Reviews

I'll be honest, I was skeptical about a 'full size' cordless vacuum and it's abilities. Range anxiety. Effective cleaning. Weight. Rest assured, this Dyson Outsize will absolutely change your opinion on all of those factors and more, about what is possible with a full size cordless vacuum. First off, CHARGE THE BATTERIES! Don't be tempted to play around with the machine, charge them first for 4.5 hours for optimal battery life. You couldn't ask for a better array of accessories and power than with this vacuum. It comes with 2 battery packs for a run time of 120 mins, that can be charged on or off of the machine. Two charging power cords are included as well, so you can charge both batteries at the same time. Now that makes sense, right?! And it also comes with a wall mounted dock, so you can charge the vacuum battery while it's in the vacuum, hung on the wall, and charge the other battery separately, ready for a quick change to prolong you vacuuming time. The tools it comes with include the main high torque XL head cleaner, a hair screw tool, mini soft dusting brush, dirt brush, a combination tool and a crevice tool. In my experience with the vacuum, when I initially charged the battery and set about vacuuming my wood floors, in ECO mode, showed 78 mins of runtime. Across 2 batteries, that would equate to 156 mins! However, this does change, dependent on MODE, and FLOOR TYPE. If you set to AUTO mode (recommended), the suction increases, and the sensor in the head monitors the surface type, looking for carpet, wood floor, tile etc and adjusts the suction automatically. Obviously, with more suction, comes less run time, and with carpet, even more suction and less run time. On a full charge, my vacuum showed 34 mins run time on AUTO when on carpet. If you switch to BOOST mode, you get the maximum suction available from the vacuum, and I swear this machine almost sucked the carpet off the floor in that mode. I tested it pretty intensely in this mode, cleaning all the carpet downstairs in this mode, and it showed 17 mins run time in BOOST mode. And it lasted all of that time. I ran it till it powered out, it gives you a 2 minute warning before losing complete power, I switched back to AUTO mode and got another 2 mins of run time. Very impressed with how it adapts, but I can't stress how good the suction is on this machine. The high suction is due to the new Hyperdymium motor, coupled with heavy duty long life batteries. And it works. I never thought I would be so excited to vacuum the floors. Not only does it have the best suction of any vacuum cleaner I've owned (and I own two other Dyson products), coupled with it's full size bin means you really can clean the whole house with both batteries. I live in a 4000sqft house, with about 2500 sqft of carpet. I was able to deep clean my carpets, and cover the wood floors and tile all within the battery charge. I vacuum regularly, I am somewhat OCD, however, on BOOST mode, I was amazed (and also disgusted) with what this Dyson was able to pull out of my carpet - especially as I had vacuumed the day before with our Dyson DC50. This Dyson Outsize just blew me away. I am incredibly impressed with its cleaning ability, its robustness, is ease of maneuverability, its durability and its battery life. And being cordless is so freeing. You don't have to keep check of the power cord, and in my case, moving the plug from outlet to outlet, limited by a 30ft cord. It really is such a great feeling to not be tethered. Makes it all feel like less of a chore. I've included pictures of everything that comes with the vacuum, the LCD display during vacuuming, an image of the dirt it was able to pull from the carpet on BOOST mode, what the carpet looked like after, and it's adaptability to be used on stairs as well. It is a very versatile machine. It is not the lightest stick vacuum out there, but that is because it's designed for long lasting battery life, and extensive cleaning, so the bigger dust bin, the battery capacity etc adds to the weight. It's not uncomfortable to use at all, but be mindful it is heavier than say a Dyson V7 Fluffy which is our other Dyson cordless vacuum. However, the Dyson Outsize will replace both of them because is it really is THAT GOOD. I wholeheartedly recommend this Dyson Outsize vacuum cleaner. The combination of cutting edge technology, battery life and cleaning ability as the title says, BLEW ME AWAY! Nice one Dyson!

Really great vacuum to have—especially with pets and stairs. Does an excellent job cleaning up hair and getting in hard to reach places.

****SUMMARY**** Dyson Outsize is a pricy high quality complete vacuuming solution for a large house and it replaces the need for the large heavy corded vacuum cleaners without sacrificing powerful suction, bin capacity, or versatility, and can be quickly switched to a hand held for smaller spaces, cars, and hard to reach areas. You will have no anxiety over battery run time with the 2 interchangeable batteries and the 2 chargers provided (one to be docked on the docking station and one that can be used to charge the spare battery. The Dyson outsize is made in Malaysia. ****Environment where the Dyson Outsize is being used**** 4 floors house of 2200+ square feet, with 48 indoor stair steps, hardwood, carpeting, kids, and 2 indoor pets. The Dyspon outsize was competing with a full size corded vacuum cleaner from a big brand, another cordless stick vacuum cleaner from a big brand, and a smaller robot vacuum cleaner from a leading brand as well. A full house vacuuming with the above mentioned non dyson cleaners used to take about 2 hours for a deep clean (about once a week) using all three of them on different floors with different settings for hardwood and carpet. We used to have to empty the stick vacuum bin at least twice, the robot vacuum cleaner twice, and the corded full sized vacuum cleaner once. I didn’t know what to expect when we got the Dyson outsize because I always dreaded the task of vacuuming, and my wife and I would have bets and the loser would have to vacuum the house ( and I lost a lot!). To save everyone the suspense, the Dyspon outsize did a full deep clean for the whole house and all the floors in 1.5 hours and the bin was emptied twice. This is a win in my book! ****Unboxing and getting ready for first use**** The Dyson outsize is packaged sensibly with no plastic bag waste whatsoever, everything was packaged neatly in recycled cardboard compartments and taking it out of the box was easy and pleasing. What's in the box: Dyson outsize wand 2 battery packs 2 chargers Wall mounted docking station High torque XL cleaner head Hair screw tool Mini soft dusting brush Stubborn dirt brush Combination tool Crevice tool Wand storage clip Battery charging guides, docking station installation manual, regulatory and safety information, and warranty activation guide. Instructions said that I had to charge both batteries until full (about 4.5 hours) before using it for the first time. So while the batteries were charging I mounted the docking station on the wall using the supplied hanging screws (I used my own stud finder and drill to hang the dock safely and firmly in place in one of the storage cabinets we have). One of the 2 supplied chargers is to be used on the wall docking station so the vacuum is charging while sitting on the dock. The other one can be used with the extra battery using any electric outlet. The 2 chargers and the 2 batteries are identical and can be used interchangeably. After the batteries were charged the Dyson outsize is now ready to be used. ****FEATURES AND PERFORMANCE**** Most notable features include: A full size bin equal to full sized corded vacuums to reduce trips to empty the bin 2 swappable batteries for a peace of mind and enough run time to clean a larger house without running out of juice. A very powerful Hyperdymium motor that delivers suction on par with my big corded vacuum cleaner A full size cleaner head that covered more floor and cut the cleaning time by at least 25% without the need to use a corded vacuum cleaner and the need to switch between power outlets along the vacuuming process. A dynamic load sensor which is very quick to change suction power and speed based on the floor you are vacuuming without the need to click, switch any buttons to make the vacuum conform to terrain change (between hardwood, carpet). This is very impressive and indeed time saving as you don't even need to change cleaner heads or floor mode. It works by increasing the suction power on carpet which makes the bristles dig deeper into the carpet to extract pet hair, and dirt while the soft carbon fiber filaments capture finer dust from hard floors and crevices. All of that extends the running time of the vacuum because it is always adjusting the suction power and speed depending on the flooring type its being used on without any lag. There is an LCD screen on the dyson outsize that shows you remaining runtime, performance, and gives you the option to switch between modes (economy, automatic, and boost). Battery life will vary depending on the mode you are using. The eco mode can let each battery run to about 60 minutes of uninterrupted cleaning, while auto mode can deliver up to 40 minutes of runtime per battery, and finally the boost mode which you would rarely need to use can drain the battery in 5 minutes (this mode is used for intensive cleaning for ground in dirt) The LCD screen also shows you when and how to clean and wash the filter and how to clear a blockage. The Dyson outsize power doesn’t fade or gets less powerful when the battery is about to run out. It keeps working with the same power and suction until the battery is completely drained which allows for consistent cleaning everywhere the Dyson outsize is used. The Dyson outsize can be easily transformed to a handheld to clean furniture, cars, smaller spaces. You will appreciate how thought out this product and extensions provided because it is so versatile. I was able to easily clean SC vents, ceiling fans, floor vents, car vents and seats, furniture and upholstery, horizontal blinds and windows rails with so much ease. I have never ever done that in so little time and this much effectiveness. One of the most impressive features is the mechanism of emptying the bin. It's very simple as you only need to lift the red toggle on the bin and it will release the dirt and empty the bin completely and comfortably. It's just a point and shoot function. One of my favorite things about the Dyson outsize is the hair tool which is conically shaped to avoid tangling. It does suck out pet and human hair completely from upholstery, steps, and tight places. The dyson outsize claims that it expels cleaner air that what it sucks in due to the machine filtration technology that traps 99.99% of particles, dust and allergens as small as 0.3 microns. So this is an added feature for me as it actually also cleans the air while running and captures the dust and particles that fly in the space where you are vacuuming. With all the above mentioned features, using the Dyson outsize made vacuuming easier and less time consuming. The weight is balanced and it doesn’t make you tired while cleaning, doesn’t strain the arms, and it is a fairly lightweight weight at less than 8 pounds total. This is heavier than your usual stick cordless vacuum but what you sacrifice in more weight you get with exceptional battery life, bigger bin and oversized cleaning head. The BOOST mode is great for carpets in high traffic areas. Yes it drains the battery faster but it absolutely sucks out all dirt and hair out of the carpet. ****FINAL THOUGHTS**** I really didn’t know what to expect before receiving and using the Dyson outsize, I didn’t dream that it could replace my fancy corded full sized vacuum cleaner, or that it will make the vacuuming process faster. It has exceeded all my expectations and it really became my go to for a full house vacuuming for all floors and stairs. It is comfortable to use, very well built and its intelligent as it does things like adjusting to the floor without any instructions from me and there is no need to replace the cleaner head to clean different types of floors. The XL cleaning head has a red switch to set the cleaning mode you want and I found that the middle setting is suitable for all floor types and I don't have to think about changing the order of cleaning anymore. Emptying the bin is easy and less frequent than any other cordless stick vacuum I know. Suction is powerful and amazing. Even the motor sound and loudness is very much less than my other corded and cordless vacuum cleaners. Yes, the price is high. But if you can afford it, you will find no better, more comfortable, and versatile vacuum cleaner option that will do it all and last a long time. This will replace any corded vacuum cleaner for indoor use no matter how good and powerful the vacuum is. I am extremely satisfied with the Dyson outsize.

This Dyson replaces my 3 year old Dyson that has seen daily duty for most of its life. I live in a large home with 2 other adults and 7 strictly indoor cats, so any other brand that I have tried in the past struggles just to pick up surface hair and dirt. All of my past vacuums have been corded so this was an entirely different experience for me. If you've ever gotten the cord repeatedly stuck on any corner, chair or other object, you already know the "whip" maneuver to try to free the cord. This sometimes doesn't end well, trust me. In the past, reports of short battery life or lack of power have prevented me from buying a cordless vacuum. Not anymore! The Dyson Outsize came cradled in entirely recyclable packaging. Kudos to Dyson for not using Styrofoam or other material that requires specialized recycling. I charged both batteries (each came with its own charging cord) until they were at 100%, then I assembled the vacuum in a few minutes. Once both batteries were charged I took the Dyson for a test drive. OMG! This thing can pick up hair, dirt, whatever from carpets, rugs, hardwood flooring, linoleum, you name it! You can get dirt/hair even from what you would normally call "clean". Simply amazing. The included attachments make the vacuum even more versatile to clean furniture, spiderweb from corners, under the fridge, ETC. It also came with a handy wall mount that doubles as a charging port. Emptying the tank is a breeze and it directs the contents straight into the garbage can so that the contents stay within the garbage can's confines. The vacuum is filtered so that the air that comes out even when full is much cleaner than the air you breathe. Great for people who suffer from allergies. The screen displays the mode as well as remaining battery life, so it takes the guesswork out of the equation. I think the auto mode is the more versatile as it is a compromise between suction and battery life. Eco works well for hardwood floors and linoleum and the battery life is doubled from the auto mode. If you need serious suction, switch it to Boost. But expect a workout because the suction is turned to the MAX and the battery life is much diminished in this mode. Overall, I am very pleased with this vacuum cleaner but I do have a couple of things to comment further on... I am 6' 2" of somewhat proportionate dimensions. So having to install the wallmount at 47.25" (120cm), it was not outside the norm for me. My wife is a foot shorter. She was surprised but not offended. The battery lasts for a long time because they are high capacity. This means extra weight. For a shorter person getting this out of its wallmount might be a challenge, so maybe the next generation will have lighter batteries... Nothing I said above denies the fact that this is an incredible machine that exceeds expectations.

This may be a bit long, so I’ll start with my conclusions while encouraging you to read the details and explanations that follow. This Outsize Cordless Vac is a terrific piece of engineering and manufacturing. It’s powerful, intelligent, and does what it promises and then some. It comes with a full array of useful tool and 2 long-lasting batteries. With a battery swap, Dyson claims 1 hour of vacuuming time, but I found that with a mixture of carpeted and solid surface floors the vac easily exceeds this. Cleaning is excellent and emptying the collection bin is a snap. The vivid LCD screen on the rear of the grip keeps the user well informed about power and battery life. Clearly, well thought through and manufactured to high standards. However, there is one significant issue that should be considered by a potential buyer: It is fatiguing to use this vac. In normal floor-cleaning configuration (power head, tube, handle and battery) it weighs about 9 pounds. Because it has no toggle-type on/off switch, activation requires holding the trigger. I found that wrapping a hand around the substantial grip and continuously holding the trigger was uncomfortable and tiring. For those with large, strong hands this might not be an issue, but I would urge buyers to try the grip and trigger as soon as they get home with the vac, and think about how it might feel 30 minutes later. More Details: Dyson uses only totally recyclable cardboard for packaging; there’s not a bit of Styrofoam to be found. This means there is little environmental impact. Bravo, Dyson. If you are familiar with Dyson’s V11 or just about any recent Dyson cordless vac, the Outsize will seem familiar. Think of it as a V11 on steroids. See photos of larger Outside next to the V11. Dyson claims the Oversize Cordless is “full size,” implying it could replace a corded vac. I agree. As with the earlier V11, the larger motorized head is really “smart” for all types of floors as it senses resistance (such as on thicker carpet) and adjusts the power accordingly. Once back on a solid flooring, power is reduced to save battery life while still cleaning brilliantly. The response to changing surfaces is almost immediate. I found it cleaned very well on all surfaces. Having 2 batteries, each with its own charger (but not a 2nd charger stand), relieves the user of worrying about the power supply, and the crisp, colorful LCD panel on rear of the powerhead is always visible and, as noted, keeps the user informed of status. As with earlier models, the Oversize Cordless has settings for Eco (max battery time), Normal (auto-adjusting as described), and Boost which vastly increases suction but depletes the batteries much faster. Due to the machine’s inherent efficiencies in Normal setting, I found little use for Boost. Each of the many provided tools works well, and I was especially pleased by the new Pet Hair tool for upholstery. I only wish it were available in a larger size, as the large cleaning head does tend to hold and wrap dog hair. (However, the rotating brush removes easily for cleaning.) Is it the perfect home-cleaning tool? Well, having the extra battery and charger is great, but there is no holder for it. Obviously, when the vac is in use, the secondary battery can sit in the wall-mounted holder. My early version lacked comprehensive written information, and that which is provided was scattered among various documents. None of these minor issues would keep me from buying and recommending this excellent product, provided the user has sufficient hand strength.

I’ve been using my Dyson vacuum for a while now, and it has completely exceeded my expectations. The suction power is incredible, effortlessly picking up dust, pet hair, and debris from both carpets and hard floors. The design is sleek and lightweight, making it easy to maneuver around furniture and reach tight spaces. I also love the advanced filtration system, which captures even the smallest particles, leaving the air feeling noticeably cleaner. The battery life is impressive, providing enough run time to clean multiple rooms without needing to recharge. Overall, this vacuum is worth every penny. It’s powerful, efficient, and makes cleaning so much easier. Highly recommend!

The performance I expect from a corded machine, has gone high tech. With its two (2) high capacity batteries, my new Dyson Outsize allowed me to vacuum the first floor with power to spare. The low profile beater bar head cleans a wide swatch of carpet or bare floor, yet being amazingly thin, fit under my couches. The powerful motor emits a pleasing yet almost futuristic whirl once engaged with the RED on/off switch. It did take a while for me to get use to holding the trigger, but like a power drill, it was quick and easy to release when the beater bar grabbed hold of something it shouldn't have. The clear dirt canister is large enough for a spin around the house. It dumps easy enough, though the release button and motion was less than intuitive for me. Practice getting it open before you use the machine the first time. It slides nicely once the red latch is released and the bottom door swings open into the trash bin. My older cloth or paper bag filters always left a strange dusty smell in the air after cleaning the floor. Not this one, the air is cleaner coming out than going in, 3-microns they state. amazing. The vacuum head makes easy work on caret or bare floors. It senses the surface and provides just the right suction removing small and large particles. I was amazed how much dust and dirt it removed. Being wider, I finish sooner covering lots of ground. The top LED display kept me informed of run time left and if the unit had any troubles like a stuck beater bar when I ran over the corner of a throw rug in the kitchen. The power unit comes apart from the stick vacuum head for use with its multiple attachments. I use this in the car.

There is something to be said that Dyson can continue to release products that keep people coming back even though on the surface they seem to not alter/improve all that much. This being our 4th Dyson vacuum (and 7th product overall) I can attest to the fact that at first we were on the fence about them as a brand. "Are they really worth it?" "Do they really offer anything over brands that cost 1/2 as much?" And the answer is yes. The warranty, design, performance, and quality is there in spades. These things simply hold up over time and perform well beyond when other makes sputter out and need to be replaced. Case in point; we still have two 1st gen Dysons. An upright as well as a handheld. Both still perform excellent and are used in dirtier areas (garage/back yard/pets, etc etc) so they are ~10 years old at this point. This all leads to the newest from Dyson in the vacuum world. Essentially it is the Torque Drive but with a 150% larger canister, this thing is our first to feature the anti-snag feature in the blades/rollers, as well as an updated digital display on the rear of the unit itself. The TD featured a single color (green on black) display while the Outsize has a multi-color HD screen which does little in the way of performance but looks so much crisper and nicer (especially at this price-point). Having used it a week I haven't had a single snag or bit of buildup on any of the rollers that come with the unit which feature the anti-snag design. Also, the digital display (while simple) is extremely useful in that it allows you to change between the 3 modes (single button; Eco, Auto, Boost) as well as display the battery life left in MM:SS format. The unit ships with all the usual attachments as well as an updated Hair Tool which features an anti-tangle, conical brush bar to help get pet hair out of upholstery and tight spaces. This will be getting MUCH use in our home of three dogs. The extension tube is a sleek dark grey/silver color which clashes a lot less than the previous purple (or red depending on which edition you purchased) and allows for handheld use as well as upright cleaning. Two batteries ship with the unit, which is great to know that you have a spare to throw in if the other dies on a really big cleaning job. I was able to charge them to 100% in 3 hours for the 1st battery and ~5 hours for the 2nd, so obviously that first one had a bit of juice in it straight out of the box. On auto mode the first battery lasted ~45 minutes and the 2nd lasted ~20 on boost mode only. I'm sure if you had only hardwood and/or no pets you could leave it on Eco and easily get ~60+ minutes out of each battery. If you are vacuuming that long requiring you to go through two batteries and are worried the first hasn't charged enough by time you deplete the 2nd, well...call in the professionals because that sounds like a HECK of a mess! Auto mode is great in that it will automatically adjust the power used by detecting the type of surface you are on (this is called Dyson Dynamic Load Sensor aka Dyson DLS). Smooth/hardwood floor? Less suction is required so it powers down. The thicker the carpet, the more that is required...so on and so forth. The display will adjust the time left instantly and let you know you have 17min on that thick carpet, but 35min left if you are doing smooth surfaces. All in all, another excellent product that is well worth the price of admission. Highly recommended and looking forward to 10+ years of giving the Outsize all it can handle!

The many parts and accessories to this vacuum make it extremely pleasing and versatile to use. The portability and minimal storage is very attractive. It is a vacuum that can be taken apart and stored in small spaces. The attachments are great for many cleaning needs, including dusting small spaces like the blinds on a window. This V11 model includes 2 battery packs that keep the vacuum cordless for as long you would need. The suction of the full stand-up was adequate, but the real draw was how it reacts on every surface. It is truly a great vacuum for all surfaces and is what a modern day family, really needs. The canister is large and is bag less and really easy to dispose of when it gets full and presumably very easy to clean with some water. Overall, the V11 is one of the best vacuums a family can get. To operate, you have to hold down a trigger on the vacuum, it will take some getting used to, but this is one of the best vacuums I have ever used and one that feels incredibly modern and is definitely a step in the right direction for updating the vacuum as we know it!

YALL! I know - why do you need a $700 vacuum? Well I'll tell you why - first of all the cordless feature is a game changer. No more plugging and unplugging everywhere. Secondly the laser head - I thought it was a gimmick at first but then I realized how much stuff it actually shows is still on my floor! Especially for pet hair! Third - how easy it is to take apart and make it a hand held vaccuum - this is INSANE for stairs. Fourth it comes with TWO batteries. Not 1 but TWO and they last about 40 minutes each on auto mode. Fifth - all the different attachments - I can do my car, my carpet, hardwood, tile, the couch cushions, and get into those tiny crevices. Sixth - the suction is POWERFUL! I could go on and on but this vacuum is ICONIC. so just get it!

This Dyson Outsize vac it's like a regular cordless stick vacuum, but it's bigger with more features. Because of its large size, it is now suitable for any home, even a large one. This Outsize is not a standard stick vac; it is a full-size vacuum. The Outsize comes with one docking station with an attachable charger and one additional charger for the extra battery. The extra easy swappable battery allows this vac to work for larger homes. The dust bin container is larger, and with that capacity, you would only need to empty the vac once after each use. For most people, vacuuming is one of the most dreaded home cleaning tasks. Now I am emptying less; in turn, I am wasting less time vacuuming. Each battery has approximately 60 minutes of runtime; time depends on the mode setting and size/quantity of particles. Changing the batteries is very flexible; it can be charged when placing the vac in the docking station, it can be charged directly on the vac (not in the station), or charged the batteries on their own. Accessories/tools included: (1) a motorized mini head is excellent for stairs or cleaning upholstery (fantastic to get rid of pet hair), (2) an angled crevice tool, (3) crevice tool, (4) an adjustable flexible brush, which is very soft and won't be scratching anything, and (5)it includes a storage clip that attaches to the wand to store two accessories. The main roller head is a bit larger than most stick vacs, so it is a great design to cover larger room space, making cleaning more efficient. This larger head results in doing a lot less work because it covers more floor space. The performance is great on both hard floors as well as carpets. What I like about the large head-deep clean is that it works on both hard floor and carpet, and the best part is that I haven't seen a bunch of hair getting tangled in the roller. The laser detection reveals microscopic dust; in a sense, it makes it hard to see dust visible on hard floors. The slim head's unique laser features beams a floor-facing green light to illuminate fine particulates, so you don't miss anything. The laser detects/reveal is not designed for carpet, and there is an option to turn off the laser. The LCD control panel shows the current performance, cleaning mode, and run time. It will also show you maintenance reminders or troubleshooting, such as filter not placed correctly or filter blockage. The HEPA level filtration is quality made and the best design. It does a great job, and I haven't detected any air leaking out of the unit; all of it comes out of the HEPA filter. Very easy to clean and maintain; rinse with just tap water and let it dry for a day or so. In conclusion, the vacuum system works well and is very easy to use.

I own a couple of different Dyson cordless vacuums, including the V7 Fluffy and V15 Detect. One vacuum usually doesn't have enough battery life or dust bin capacity to cover my entire house, so I've placed each one at different areas around the house. This new Outsize+ model finally has the bin capacity, battery life, and features I need to make it my one and only vacuum for the entire 3,000 square foot house. It takes some of the best features of the V15 Detect model and adds extra bin capacity and battery life for those who need to clean large areas. === UNBOXING AND OVERVIEW === - Like every Dyson cordless model, the Outsize+ is extremely easy to unbox and set up, though be prepared to sift through a lot of cardboard and protective packaging to find everything in the box. - The Outsize+ features a matte red stainless steel-looking color on the wand. It doesn't show any fingerprints, but the red color certainly stands out amongst my neutral-colored home décor. - The Outsize+ comes with two cleaner heads (the Laser Slim Fluffy and the Digital Motorbar XL) and five attachments (hair screw tool; soft dusting brush; crevice tool; combination tool; and stubborn dirt brush). - Two click-in batteries are included, and the battery is very easy to swap out when one runs out of charge. Two wall chargers are also included, so you can charge both batteries at once and make sure you always have a back-up. With both batteries fully charged, Dyson claims you can get up to 2 hours of run time (1 hour per battery). - This model is missing some of the intelligent features of the V15 Detect, such as the measurements of dust particles and sizes shown on the screen after each use. But I suspect this won't be a deal-breaker for most people. - Compared to the 0.2 gallon bin on the V15 Detect, the 0.5 gallon bin on the Outsize+ is 150% larger. This is great for vacuuming the entire house, but the Outsize+ is noticeably heavier than any other Dyson cordless vacuum I've used. Definitely something to keep in mind. === LASER SLIM FLUFFY HEAD PERFORMANCE === - The laser Fluffy head is Dyson's best innovation in years. I've used it for over a year on the V15 Detect, and I'm so glad it's included with the Outsize+. My house is almost 90% hard floors, and they have never felt so clean. Gone are the days of wondering if you've actually picked up all of the dust and crumbs on your hard floor. As you can see in the attached photo, there is a green laser on the right side of the Fluffy head that projects at a 90-degree angle. - The laser works great, though it is a bit dim on the left side of the head. Regardless, I have found dust and crumbs in places on my floor that I never thought were there. The laser reveals even the smallest amount of dust and hair so you can be sure you don't miss anything. - The laser does not work very well in a bright room. For the best performance, I have to turn off most of my lights and close my blinds. Not a huge deal to me as that is a small price to pay for a clean floor. - The laser can be turned off via a small switch on the head itself, though it's unclear what impact this has on battery life (probably little or none). === DIGITAL MOTORBAR XL HEAD === - This XL cleaner head is 25% larger than the one included with the V15 Detect and is mainly for use on rugs and carpet, though it can also be used on hard floors. The cleaner head has "hair removal vanes" that prevent hair from wrapping around the bar as you vacuum. - Once again, it works as advertised. I have vacuumed the carpets in my bedrooms extensively with this cleaner head and have not noticed any hair wrapped around the bristles -- it all makes its way into the bin. - Like the Fluffy head, the Digital Motorbar XL cleaner head will adjust the vacuum's suction based on floor type and carpet thickness to maximize battery life and cleaning performance. On both cleaner heads, you can choose Eco, Auto, or Boost modes via a button below the LCD screen. Boost mode obviously provides the best performance but there is a big hit to battery life. - You can also adjust the suction of this cleaner head using the red adjustment slider on the front. Sliding it towards the plus (+) side increases suction for heavily soiled carpets, while the minus (-) side is best for deep pile carpets or if you need to capture larger debris. === OTHER FEATURES AND THOUGHTS === - Like other Dyson cordless models, the Outsize+ is very easy to clean and maintain. The point-and-shoot design of the canister makes it very easy to empty debris directly into a trash can, though the added weight of the larger bin can make this a bit of a challenge when it's full. The filter keeps dust out of the air and is easy to clean by just running it under a faucet. - I was pleasantly surprised to see that the Outsize+ fits perfectly in my Floor Dok that was originally designed for the V11 (see photo). To get it to charge in the Dok, I had to add a bit of padding in the charging cradle underneath the plug/barrel to raise it up higher. The charging port on the Outsize+ is a bit more recessed than that of the V11, so you have to make the barrel protrude a bit further up from the Dok. I believe the newest variant of the Floor Dok is fully compatible with the Outsize+ with no adjustments needed. - I appreciate the variety of smaller tools/attachments that are included, but it is certainly a bit hard/awkward to use those tools given the increased weight of the Outsize+. === OVERALL === The Dyson Outsize+ is the new go-to cordless vacuum for those who want to vacuum their larger homes in one go without having to worry about battery life or dust bin size. Forget the old, clunky upright vacuum – this is your new one-stop shop. It has everything you need for hard floors and carpets, with the laser Fluffy head being essential to my cleaning routine. The versatility and expandability of this vacuum is unmatched by any other brand. Highly recommended!

I've been using Dyson vacuums for more than 2 decades, and have never been disappointed. I still have the most recent big ball version of the corded one that is amazingly powerful, but I always still have a cordless for convenience. I had a much older Dyson V7 or whatever cordless one for a few years, and I had given that to a family member when I grabbed a Wyze cordless vacuum to try out. And it was only a few months later was already looking for another Dyson. It was between this and another one of the same generation that had the sensor that reported particulates and such. I had no use for that particular feature, and this one had everything I wanted. I've been using it now for over 2 years, and still really loving it. The noise level is acceptable for the power, and the attachments are complete enough for my needs as a guy whose kid graduated and moved out a couple years ago, and now have the house to myself. The one head is great for my carpets, the other does well with the tiled areas. I like the capacity, and REALLY like the ease of emptying out the bin, which was something I never cared for on the older Dyson cordless I had.

We have been through SO many vacuums, so many, did I say SO many? Seriously my wife has been through like 10 vacuums in the last few years and none ever seemed to be real good. Since Dyson has such a great reputation, I thought we'd give it a try. I picked this model because it has the biggest brush and the best suction power. And kind of a present for my wife. My wife loves this, just loves it. She has like nothing she doesn't like about it. It cleans so well and picks up pretty much everything. Plus it comes with so many attachments. Everything is easy to use, just snap an attachment in and go. Guess the only negative is the price. But... It is high quality and you do get what you pay for. If we don't need to get yet another new vacuum, it will pay for itself. Well, one other thing, you really need to get a stand for this, it does come with a mount, but if you don't use that, it does not stand on it's own. Kind a thing I guess with stick cordless vacuums. I picked up a stand that uses the included mount and it woks perfectly. The wife is very happy, I am happy, would recommend.

Being cordless is the best! The battery lasts a long time. The laser shows all the fine particles on a bare floor. It’s easy to empty and maintain. Long hair never wraps around the brush heads. It’s crazy how well that particular feature works. It is a little heavy after using for a while but worth it for the results and portability especially if you have a large house, stairs and various floor types.

This is our first ever Dyson vacuum and it is incredible! From the moment you open the box, the attention to detail in the instructions, commitment to environmentally friendly packaging (ALL recyclable paper-based packaging!!!), and all of the accessories! I have had a fair share of cordless vacuums, including a second battery is basically standard after reaching a certain price-point, but Dyson does one better and includes a second charge, too! This is fantastic for someone that has a two story home and doesn't enjoy having to bring the vacuum up back downstairs to charge it if I get into a super deep cleaning mode and actually manage to kill the battery before finishing vacuuming. The controls are intuitive but I would still recommend a brief stroll through the instruction manuals to become completely familiar with the functionality, especially the different uses for the two rollers... the hair remover head, which is the main one we use since our dog sheds a little and my significant other sheds a lot and she doesn't care to vacuum or clean the hair out of the vacuum roller if/when it clogs. We have not had any issues with hair clogging any of the cleaning heads, or any other objects being missed by this vacuum. My favorite feature is the battery life estimator that shows the estimated amount of time remaining based on cleaning modes and power, this is an absolute game changer! Our old cordless stick vacuum would show this in the app and show the power level on the display, but not the battery life on the display. I could go on and on about how fantastic this vacuum is and how Dyson knocked it out of the park, but trying it out is the real winner. It's on the pricier side of vacuums, but it is loaded with everything you could want and I have heard incredible things about Dyson's support, if you need to contact them. I would highly recommend!

Our old school Dyson Ball finally started to have issues after 11 years, so we decided to give this a shot. The suction power is fantastic and the build quality seems to be good. I love that we have 2 removable batteries and a large bin. This makes cleaning the whole house easier. I also love the floor detect feature as it does a good job of picking the correct suction setting. The bin can be a little difficult to open and it is a little too heavy due to the size, but these are not deal breakers. The price however, is. Even with Black Friday savings, this is one expensive vac. If it holds up then it will be worth the purchase. Time will tell, but in the meantime it does what we want it to do. Going cordless is a very liberating experience.

It’s pricey, no doubt! But the vacuum does an amazing job on our hardwood and tile floors, and after switching out the heads, does very well on our area rugs as well. It even did a decent job on the small carpet in our kids loft bedroom. The light seems like a silly gimmick, but actually it does an amazing job of showing how much unseen dust really is laying on your floors. It is a little bit heavier than other stick vacs I have had, but the extra suction and larger collection bin are worth the extra weight, Battery life seems very good as there is enough battery to do all of our house with plenty to spare.

Best Upgrades over the previous models -Larger bin -Removable battery pack (x2) -Full size brush head -More powerful motor -More attachments My Home -1800 sqft upstairs -1000 sqft finished downstairs -Carpet stairs -Living room rug 80sqft -Upstairs 3 bedrooms carpet -Living, Dining, Kitchen hard floors -Downstairs all hard floor. -4 x humans: 3 long hair, 1 short. -2 x ~20 lbs dogs: 1 white short fur, 1, black/brown med fur I have put some comparison photos in the review for size. We have been using the V11 Animal since it came out 2 years ago. It is still a fantastic cordless vacuum and will continue to use it. It will just be relegated to the finished basement only now. I also compare a bit to the V11. The great thing is that the accessories and even the chargers are the same, down to the wall mount. Read below though for one issue I ran into with the wall mount compatibility between the older V11 and the new Outsize. Immediately in my carpeted areas I noticed an improved dirt pickup amount and I was able to do my 14ftx14ft bedroom without having to empty the dust bin 3 times like normal. Game changer!! In fact, I did the whole master room and living room without needing to empty the bin. The more powerful motor, and larger cleaner head is great. And as always the Outsize will adapt to the floor type to get the best cleaning mode to the conditions which is great for battery life too. I also love how quite it is when using it. I was expecting to lose that feature with the increase in power, but NOT AT ALL. And honestly, I think that the decibel rating is a feature not advertised enough given the amount of power this and other Dyson models have. Battery life is great. The battery time indicator fluctuates quite a bit during use and it is a learning system, so it will fluctuate a bit more at the beginning. But on first use I can do my whole house on 1 charge with a little power to spare. I could almost finish the whole house on the V11 Animal before, just would have to empty the dust bin about 10 or so times. If you are going the extra mile and also dusting the blinds, base board, curtains, etc. The extra battery will be great here. Having the full size cleaner head is great, the only section that it will actually be less useful is the carpeted stairs, but I still have the V11 and it can tackle it just fine or just swap out the cleaner head as they are compatible. The upholstery tool is great and the no-tangle design of the brush is nice. Due to the extra power, I have not even attempted a few of the smaller interior door mats. The V11 Animal already was too powerful for those and I know the Outsize definitely will be. They are only like 2.5ft by 1ft size so most things would suck them up into the cleaner head. Never thought of the couch attachment until writing the review, so will give that a shot! Overall the Outsize is excellent and it's hard not to recommend. With the larger bin, if you have a lot of carpet, and the extra battery and charger, it definitely can be a great option for cleaning. I do have a two caveats and unfortunately they carry over from the V11 Animal; these have nothing to with the quality of the product, I’ve had no issues out of use over the 2 years of ownership and with the removable batteries now on the Outsize I will get even more life out of this new unit. That being said, Dyson prides itself in the efforts it takes in design and detail and I think they do achieve that with each product, but what irks me is the follow through on the full use of the product. First, the dock. I highly recommend securing the wall mount to a stud if you have that option, if you don’t...DO NOT use the included wall anchors. They are not strong enough nor designed to handle the continued force of taking the vacuum in and out of the dock and will fail quickly (experience). I recommend a toggle bolt as it will definitely hold...IF you are adamant about wall mounting. Second, where do I put all the accessories? It seems petty, but this should also be a part of the design process and included with the vacuum. The dock is very limiting and while it does achieve a nice minimalism design, its also not as practical, so the extra attachments get relegated to some where not usually as convenient. Dyson does sell the Dok, and since the V11 wall mount works with the Outsize, there shouldn't be an issue with the Dok either. (Side Note: I will add that while I did not remove the actual piece that mounts to the wall , I did have to swap out the part that the charger connection sits in. There does seem to be a slight difference in the design of the door that keeps the charger port on the dock seated. As soon as I swapped out that part, the Outsize slide right into place and started charging. Using the Outsize dock piece for the V11 had no issue and the V11 slid into place just as before to charge. So not really sure what the issue was there, it could have been as simply taking a part readjusted the charger port enough to adequately allow the Outsize to slid into place; which is what I am leaning towards at this point. It was too difficult to see that area when trying to figure out why it wouldn't slide down all the way at first.) Back to my second caveat, the Dyson Dok does solve not wanting/needing to attach to the wall, but the accessories are still left without a home. Both of my caveats can be easily remedied with a search online and a lot of low cost options are available if you decide to not want to wall mount and/or looking for a solution to hold the extra accessories. Wish this was all figured out with the final product. When it comes to size, the Outsize is just a tad taller than the V11 Animal and weight in the hand is unnoticeable, which makes dusting crown molding, blinds, and other tasks not resting on the floor just as easy as before. On the scales the weight difference is in ounces. So to recap: stronger motor, bigger bin, removable and extra battery, larger cleaning head, nearly the same weight and size, backwards compatibility with accessories, dock, and charger, and still quiet! What’s not to like? It is hands down an upgrade and definitely worth it if you are going the cordless route. And as the motto says…”everything can improve” and so it does.

I have owned Dyson products for years and I certainly stand behind the brand. My new Dyson Outsize+ Cordless Vacuum blows my previous vacuums out of the water. First, it is so light and easy to maneuver. It can go under anything without having to buy additional attachments. Second, it comes with two large cleaning heads. The XL Digital cleaning head is Smart and automatically senses how much suction power to use on hard floors or carpets. You don’t have to do anything. The with its new technology, you no longer have to spend time trying to pull out long hair from the roller. The second cleaning head uses a cool green laser light that lights up the dust in bright green so you can’t miss a thing! Third, it is a breeze to empty the canister. Fourth, the great attachments make cleaning furniture, shelves, stairs, and mattresses simple and quick. I’ve saved the vest for last. Fifth, the best part of this vacuum is that it is cordless! It comes with two batteries, which you can quickly change, recharge, and continue vacuuming. Each battery lasts unbelievably long too. I love this vacuum and already recommended it to my sister who now has one too. It’s time to upgrade and trust me, you will love vacuuming with the Dyson Outsize+.
